Bonnie Couchie
Everybody knows oldest children should stay on the straight and narrow and set a good example for the rest of their siblings. This is what Bonnie Couchie thought. Though music was her great Love, she denied its' burning force until the age of 30 when she first dared to profess it out loud. At that age having only tentatively played the guitar off and on since the age of 13, she looked around at all the musicians years younger and way ahead of her and felt she had no right to love music in that way. For the next next 7 years she battled fear and doubt while writing songs and playing every single gig that she could find in the radius of her small town of 350 people. Torn between her love of her home by the river and her passion for Music, she created a house concert venue that would welcome and nurture other musicians traveling along that lonely stretch of trans Canadian hwy. She built a refuge where Music would find her and feed her and where she would feed music in return. On October 13, 2009 she released her debut CD called "Feather for an Elephant".
